Letters / Protected by the Supreme Court
UNISON are to be congratulated on taking the UK government to court over the introduction of employment tribunal fees and winning because the Supreme Court decided the government acted unlawfully and unconstitutionally. The fees are now scrapped.
The coalition government, Tories and Liberal Democrats, brought in the employment tribunal fees.
Just as well the Supreme Court is there to protect us from the actions of the Tories and the Liberal Democrats.
